Joost Movable Type integration
Steve pointed me at a Joost Movable type plugin. Of course I had to try it, and you can see the result in the right side of my blog, under “Activity Stream”. What I roughly did was:
1) Added the Action Stream plugin to my Movable type installation.
2) Copied the config.yaml from Toni_H under plugins/joost/
3) Added a joost image to mt static path/plugins/joost/images
4) Added this under mt static path/plugins/joost/css:
.service-joost {
background-image: url(../images/joost.gif);
}
and put it in my styles.css as:
@import url(/mt41-static/plugins/joost/css/joost.css);
And voila :)
Update 21/10: Added a dedicated page
Hi Allan,
I posted the Joost plugin tonight and have slightly changed the config. It will only matter to you if you want to aggregate feeds on a full activity page. You’ll find instructions on Richard Benson’s blog for that. (www.richardbenson.co.uk)
Your activity stream could do with a shift to the left. To do that, change the CSS for .action-stream-list padding-left:0px, and add padding:0 to .action-stream-list li. That should line it up properly and give you a wider stream.
